The overnight 14 Coast Starlight (Amtrak) from Los Angeles to Seattle.
--3 states
--1,377 miles
--36 hours
--29 stops (a few afford a chance for some fresh air, for a few minutes)
--incalculable jaw drops at the beauty seen from along the ocean coastline to the snowy mountain ranges and backdoor views of towns and cities.
I can't recommend this enough! What an experience! What a way to see the country! The whole ride was smooth, quiet, and tranquil. Whether you enjoy a book in the glass-domed car while sipping on some coffee, or nurse a beer through the passing majesty outside your window, you are rocked gently into a relaxation that is unlike any other. The staff was ever ready to accommodate needs and/or wants. Guest speakers rode along, regaling passengers with tales of the flora, fauna, and history of the areas. Fellow passengers were in equal states of awe and wonder, evidenced by the acknowledging head tilts complete with twinkling eyes and hearty grins. Childhood fancy was stirred together with an aged appreciation and I found that though we were moving northward, time had stood still.
Note: Yes...I have since learned to refrain from filming in portrait mode, when using a phone. 🤣
Note: Thank you, all, who have clarified that it's a "Lounge Car" featured in this video, not an actual "Parlour Car." I did not intend to mislead anyone; during our ride, the staff and fellow passengers were calling it the "Parlour Car," and I was at fault for "following the flock" in my understanding. Our train's Parlour Car must have been undergoing maintenance, at the time. I did find, however, the Lounge Car to be quite enjoyable. Nevertheless, I imagine riding with an official Parlour Car would enhance the experience, greatly. Thank you all, for clarifying this, for me and for others.

At least five people are confirmed dead after a major earthquake of magnitude 8.2 struck off Chile's north west coast triggering a Tsunami alert for all of South and Central America's Pacific coastline.
The authorities immediately ordered an evacuation of all coastal areas telling people to get to higher ground or to reception centres.
The quake was very shallow, only 20 km below the seabed, and struck less than 100 km northwest of the mining port of Iquique, near the Peruvian border.

At 165.25 million square kilometers (63.8 million square miles) in area, this largest division of the World Ocean—and, in turn, the hydrosphere—covers about 46% of the Earth's water surface and about one-third of its total surface area, making it larger than all of the Earth's land area combined.

The equator subdivides it into the North Pacific Ocean and South Pacific Ocean, with two exceptions: the Galápagos and Gilbert Islands, while straddling the equator, are deemed wholly within the South Pacific. The Mariana Trench in the western North Pacific is the deepest point in the world, reaching a depth of 10,911 metres (35,797ft).

Lifuka Island - The Coastline of a Future Pacific

Lifuka Island - The Coastline of a Future Pacific

Lifuka Island - The Coastline of a Future Pacific

In May 2006 a magnitude 7.9 earthquake caused the western coastline of Tonga's Lifuka Island to subside by 23cm. After this unique event Lifuka was chosen as part of a regional effort to understand how vulnerable Pacific Island communities can adapt to the impacts of rising sea levels.
The Australian-funded PacificAdaptationStrategy Assistance Program enabled scientists to work closely with the Lifuka community to determine three main adaptation options: planned migration inland; sand replenishment and; the construction of an engineered revetment or seawall.
This film, which follows on from the first documentary 'RisingOceans: Changing Lives', examines Lifuka's struggle to make the tough choices needed to adapt to the changing coastline of a future Pacific.

The Republic of Vanuatu lies in the South Pacific Ocean, just a short flight from Australia and New Zealand.
Most visitors to Vanuatu arrive at the nation’s capital, Port Vila, situated on the main island of Efate. Vila, as it’s affectionately known, sits at the edge of a magnificent natural harbor filled with corals and sea life.
Like many South Pacific ports, Vila is wonderfully relaxed, so leave your designer gear at home, pull on some flip flops and slide into island time.
Just a ten-minute drive from port Vila, is Ekasup Cultural Village, where proud villagers are waiting to share their centuries-old customs, crafts, music and stories.
From Vila, take a 50-minute flight to Espiritu Santo. At the island’s sleepy capital Luganville, stock up on supplies at the markets, before venturing off to explore the island’s natural wonders.
After exploring mainland Santo, visit the islands off its southern coast, such as Aore Island, BokissaIsland and Malo Island.
Just a 45-minute flight south from Port Vila, Tanna Island is fringed with beaches ranging from pure white to black volcanic sands. Many of the hillside villages on Tanna remain largely unaffected by the trappings of the modern world. Feel the earth shake on Mt. Yasur, one of the world’s most active and accessible volcanoes.
After experiencing the warmth and generosity of Vanuatu’s people, it’s easy to feel that Vanuatu could be one of richest places on earth.

http://www.expedia.com/San-Francisco.d178305.Destination-Travel-Guides
Leave the regular world behind when you step into the fog-swathed “City by the Bay.” From shopping adventures in Union Square to a trip on the city’s legendary cable cars, a trip to San Francisco is bound to leave you with incredible memories.
Stop by Fisherman’s Wharf and indulge in its shops and galleries, as well as some of the best fresh seafood you’ll ever taste. Walk on the Golden Gate Bridge and take in the fresh sea air and views of the bay and Pacific Ocean. If it’s a more serene environment you’re after, pass through the stately architecture and flowing lagoon of the Palace of Fine Arts.
Of course, San Francisco sightseeing isn’t complete without an excursion to Alcatraz, the island prison that once held some of the country’s most notorious criminals. Look into its empty cells and thick stone walls and wonder, could you escape “The Rock”?

To the question: "Bora Bora – where is it?" can be answered this way: "From Tahiti to the North-West." And to clarify: "240 kilometers - not that big of a distance."
The sights of the island Lagoonarium is located in the Central part of the lagoon Islands. This is an outdoor aquarium, where a lot of tropical fish. In an ordinary aquarium to watch the fish only on the other side of the glass. Unlike the open aquarium is that you can take a mask and snorkel and swim among rays, sharks, turtles and other tropical fish. And under the supervision of instructors you can even feed these marine predators – sharks and rays. - Coral garden can be found on a small island with the English name of Sofitel Motu. The water here is completely transparent, and between the beautiful coral placers can be clearly seen floating colorful fish. But it is best to put on a mask and fins and to keep the company of stingrays, Moray eels, sea urchins, black sharks and other tropical fish. You can swim over the coral gardens and kayaking. One of the landmarks makes the famous island of Bora Bora. "This is where the pearl farm!" – immediately exclaims lovers of exotic holiday. Indeed, it is possible to see the whole process of the birth of a pearl inside of an oyster. Then you can go to the store and purchase local pearls. Mount otemanu is a popular place for Hiking on the island. However you can climb only on the "shoulders" of the mountain, the vertical top of it available, primarily because the soil on it is scree. Go to the mountain, we have a clear day so they could see the beauty of the surroundings and under the feet are not sloshing in the mud (if the rain catches, this is possible). But it is better to take along a local guide. And then we can see the remains of ancient settlements, ceremonial sites, religious sanctuaries, to try exotic fruits. Of course, here not described all the attractions of the island. Travel around the island Ring road along the coast goes around the entire island, its length is 32 kilometers. Public transport is represented by the only bus which runs approx once an hour. The best way to move around the Central island is to rent a bike, scooter or car. Only while travelling you need to be wary of domestic animals: pigs, chickens, dogs that run loose around the neighborhood. Even better to travel to Bora Bora on foot, along the way exploring all the attractions of the island. In such hikes will not be superfluous local guide, who will tell many interesting and spend in the most inaccessible places, Bora-Bora, where possible, of course. Three mountains is Pahia, and otemanu Mataiea. The last is the highest (727 metres). But all three much eroded edge of the crater of an extinct volcano. The rest of the island consists of basaltic lava, and the little motu from the remains of corals and layers of sand. Nature like in a fairy tale! And this is no exaggeration. Bora Bora – where is it? Where is the emerald lagoon with clear water, a scattering of cosy coral islets called motu, palm groves, fruit orchards, mountain range with three peaks, Three mountains is Pahia, and otemanu Mataiea. The last is the highest (727 metres). But all three much eroded edge of the crater of an extinct volcano. The rest of the island consists of basaltic lava, and the little motu from the remains of corals and layers of sand. The Polynesians, Tahitians or the Local residents live mainly on a flat coastal strip, because the Central part is covered by mountains difficult to access. According to the 2007 census, the local population of the island amounted to 8880. Most of them (around 5,000 people) live in the only major settlement and administrative centre of the island, Vaitape. There is even a Christian Church. The island's residents speak Thai and French. But many of them understand English, since it is necessary to communicate with tourists, and not only as staff.

https://www.expedia.com/Cook-Islands.d41.Destination-Travel-Guides
Situated at the very centre of Polynesia, the Cook Islands is an archipelago nation comprised of 15 islands. It is spread across an area in the South Pacific, three times the size of Texas..
Supremely beautiful, with pristine white sands fringed by coconut palms, the Cook Islands possess a castaway island magic and yet is only a four hour flight from New Zealand.
According to legend, these tiny islands, dotted amongst the vast ocean, were discovered thousands of years ago by the very finest Polynesian seafarers. Guided by the stars and using other sophisticated navigation techniques, they landed their legendary double hulled Vakas and set about creating paradise.
It is a rhythm you’ll feel as soon as you touch down in Raratonga, the largest island in the group.
You could easily drive around this sparkling island in half an hour if you hurry, but that’s the charm of the Cook Islands….. no one does.
It has been almost 250 years since Captain Cook became the first European to discover these islands and yet there is a gentle timelessness that endures here.
Come and discover the generous rhythm and warm hospitality of the Cook Islands for yourself.

California Pacific Coast Highway

I have long dreamed about this trip. My daughter just finished her first year of college so I was trying to come up with something cool and fun for a father / daughter. So I did some research and decided to DO IT! I am sooooooo glad that we did this trip. I had high expectations but this went way beyond my wildest dreams. We started in SF and drove 100+ miles per day for a 5 day trip to LA. We averaged just over 11 MPH. My first recommendation - go north to south as we did. All the pullovers and beauty are just to your right hand side. AND - GET a convertible!
I filmed this with my GoPro Hero3. I just bought it and am not well versed in its use. I will say that I am extremely impressed with the quality.
I can now die and know what heaven will look like. I hope you enjoy this video!

A Railfanning Tour of Union Pacific's Coast Line - 4K

Union Pacific's Coast Line is a rail line in the State of California connecting the San Francisco Bay Area to the Los Angeles Basin. Despite a robust history of train traffic, the Coast Line sees relatively light traffic in modern times, and this is reflected by relatively little fanfare compared to busier railroad lines.
This feature length film is a contemporary tour of a section of the Coast Line between the Salinas RiverValley and Gaviota. Follow along as we go location by location with maps, historic photographs, lineside footage, and onboard footage. Filmed over a period of seven months in late 2016 and early 2017, this video is the most comprehensive film of the Coast Line ever produced!
You'll thrill to exciting scenes as trains tackle the steep grades and sharp curvature of Cue...

Amtrak’s Coast Starlight, formerly known as the Southern Pacific’sCoast Daylight, has been called “the most beautiful passenger train in America”, and it’s not hard to see why. The train’s route between Los Angeles and Seattle passes through some of the most pristine parts of the world-famous California coastline. Thanks toCalifornia’s strictest-in-the-nation environmental laws, much of the rugged California coastline tha...

Lifuka Island - The Coastline of a Future Pacific

In May 2006 a magnitude 7.9 earthquake caused the western coastline of Tonga's Lifuka Island to subside by 23cm. After this unique event Lifuka was chosen as part of a regional effort to understand how vulnerable Pacific Island communities can adapt to the impacts of rising sea levels.
The Australian-funded PacificAdaptationStrategy Assistance Program enabled scientists to work closely with the Lifuka community to determine three main adaptation options: planned migration inland; sand replenishment and; the construction of an engineered revetment or seawall.
This film, which follows on from the first documentary 'RisingOceans: Changing Lives', examines Lifuka's struggle to make the tough choices needed to adapt to the changing coastline of a future Pacific.

Russia's rough Norwegian sea coast

Murmansk, the metropolis on the Barents Sea, is anything but Russia's cold north. There's always something going on here, for example the OlympicPolarGames. Ice surfing and ice swimming, reindeer racing, the first atom ice breaker in the history of the world, a corner shop in ice and snow, endearing village school lessons and the singing Norwegian SeaFleet - arctic lifestyle far away, north of the polar circle.

13-28 California Coast #3 of 4: Highway 1 and Big Sur

Follows California Highway 1South through the Big Sur region along the California coast. We shot two hours of footage along the way but due to the inconsistent and sometimes poor lighting conditions decided to condense that footage in to one highlight video of the drive. Music info and FAQ's are in the ending credits.

I have long dreamed about this trip. My daughter just finished her first year of college so I was trying to come up with something cool and fun for a father / daughter. So I did some research and decided to DO IT! I am sooooooo glad that we did this trip. I had high expectations but this went way beyond my wildest dreams. We started in SF and drove 100+ miles per day for a 5 day trip to LA. We averaged just over 11 MPH. My first recommendation - go north to south as we did. All the pullovers and beauty are just to your right hand side. AND - GET a convertible!
I filmed this with my GoPro Hero3. I just bought it and am not well versed in its use. I will say that I am extremely impressed with the quality.
I can now die and know what heaven will look like. I hope you enjoy this video!

Union Pacific's Coast Line is a rail line in the State of California connecting the San Francisco Bay Area to the Los Angeles Basin. Despite a robust history of train traffic, the Coast Line sees relatively light traffic in modern times, and this is reflected by relatively little fanfare compared to busier railroad lines.
This feature length film is a contemporary tour of a section of the Coast Line between the Salinas RiverValley and Gaviota. Follow along as we go location by location with maps, historic photographs, lineside footage, and onboard footage. Filmed over a period of seven months in late 2016 and early 2017, this video is the most comprehensive film of the Coast Line ever produced!
You'll thrill to exciting scenes as trains tackle the steep grades and sharp curvature of Cuesta Pass, skirt along the farm fields of the Santa Maria Valley, and wind along the coast through Vandenberg Air Force Base. Along the way, you'll see train meets and special movements by both Amtrak and Union Pacific.

Amtrak Coast Starlight, in a Sleeper Car Bedroom

The overnight 14 Coast Starlight (Amtrak) from Los Angeles to Seattle.
--3 states
--1,377 miles
--36 hours
--29 stops (a few afford a chance for some fresh air, for a few minutes)
--incalculable jaw drops at the beauty seen from along the ocean coastline to the snowy mountain ranges and backdoor views of towns and cities.
I can't recommend this enough! What an experience! What a way to see the country! The whole ride was smooth, quiet, and tranquil. Whether you enjoy a book in the glass-domed car while sipping on some coffee, or nurse a beer through the passing majesty outside your window, you are rocked gently into a relaxation that is unlike any other. The staff was ever ready to accommodate needs and/or wants. Guest speakers rode along, regaling passengers with tales of the flora, fauna, and history of the areas. Fellow passengers were in equal states of awe and wonder, evidenced by the acknowledging head tilts complete with twinkling eyes and hearty grins. Childhood fancy was stirred together with an aged appreciation and I found that though we were moving northward, time had stood still.
Note: Yes...I have since learned to refrain from filming in portrait mode, when using a phone. 🤣
Note: Thank you, all, who have clarified that it's a "Lounge Car" featured in this video, not an actual "Parlour Car." I did not intend to mislead anyone; during our ride, the staff and fellow passengers were calling it the "Parlour Car," and I was at fault for "following the flock" in my understanding. Our train's Parlour Car must have been undergoing maintenance, at the time. I did find, however, the Lounge Car to be quite enjoyable. Nevertheless, I imagine riding with an official Parlour Car would enhance the experience, greatly. Thank you all, for clarifying this, for me and for others.
Note: for mobile device viewers, annotations don't appear on-screen. At the 2:28 mark, it should be noted that "There is a traditional door on this bathroom; it's just not visible, here."

Chile earthquake triggers tsunami alert along Pacific coastline

At least five people are confirmed dead after a major earthquake of magnitude 8.2 struck off Chile's north west coast triggering a Tsunami alert for all of South and Central America's Pacific coastline.

The quake was very shallow, only 20 km below the seabed, and struck less than 100 km northwest of the mining port of Iquique, near the Peruvian border.

Vanuatu Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia (4K)

https://www.expedia.com/Vanuatu.d192.Destination-Travel-Guides
The Republic of Vanuatu lies in the South Pacific Ocean, just a short flight from Australia and New Zealand.
Most visitors to Vanuatu arrive at the nation’s capital, Port Vila, situated on the main island of Efate. Vila, as it’s affectionately known, sits at the edge of a magnificent natural harbor filled with corals and sea life.
Like many South Pacific ports, Vila is wonderfully relaxed, so leave your designer gear at home, pull on some flip flops and slide into island time.
Just a ten-minute drive from port Vila, is Ekasup Cultural Village, where proud villagers are waiting to share their centuries-old customs, crafts, music and stories.
From Vila, take a 50-minute flight to Espiritu Santo. At the island’s sleepy capital Luganville, stock up on supplies at the markets, before venturing off to explore the island’s natural wonders.
After exploring mainland Santo, visit the islands off its southern coast, such as Aore Island, BokissaIsland and Malo Island.
Just a 45-minute flight south from Port Vila, Tanna Island is fringed with beaches ranging from pure white to black volcanic sands. Many of the hillside villages on Tanna remain largely unaffected by the trappings of the modern world. Feel the earth shake on Mt. Yasur, one of the world’s most active and accessible volcanoes.
After experiencing the warmth and generosity of Vanuatu’s people, it’s easy to feel that Vanuatu could be one of richest places on earth.

San Francisco Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

http://www.expedia.com/San-Francisco.d178305.Destination-Travel-Guides
Leave the regular world behind when you step into the fog-swathed “City by the Bay.” From shopping adventures in Union Square to a trip on the city’s legendary cable cars, a trip to San Francisco is bound to leave you with incredible memories.
Stop by Fisherman’s Wharf and indulge in its shops and galleries, as well as some of the best fresh seafood you’ll ever taste. Walk on the Golden Gate Bridge and take in the fresh sea air and views of the bay and Pacific Ocean. If it’s a more serene environment you’re after, pass through the stately architecture and flowing lagoon of the Palace of Fine Arts.
Of course, San Francisco sightseeing isn’t complete without an excursion to Alcatraz, the island prison that once held some of the country’s most notorious criminals. Look into its empty cells and thick stone walls and wonder, could you escape “The Rock”?
Visit our San Francisco travel guide to plan your Bay Area trip.

To the question: "Bora Bora – where is it?" can be answered this way: "From Tahiti to the North-West." And to clarify: "240 kilometers - not that big of a distance."
The sights of the island Lagoonarium is located in the Central part of the lagoon Islands. This is an outdoor aquarium, where a lot of tropical fish. In an ordinary aquarium to watch the fish only on the other side of the glass. Unlike the open aquarium is that you can take a mask and snorkel and swim among rays, sharks, turtles and other tropical fish. And under the supervision of instructors you can even feed these marine predators – sharks and rays. - Coral garden can be found on a small island with the English name of Sofitel Motu. The water here is completely transparent, and between the beautiful coral placers can be clearly seen floating colorful fish. But it is best to put on a mask and fins and to keep the company of stingrays, Moray eels, sea urchins, black sharks and other tropical fish. You can swim over the coral gardens and kayaking. One of the landmarks makes the famous island of Bora Bora. "This is where the pearl farm!" – immediately exclaims lovers of exotic holiday. Indeed, it is possible to see the whole process of the birth of a pearl inside of an oyster. Then you can go to the store and purchase local pearls. Mount otemanu is a popular place for Hiking on the island. However you can climb only on the "shoulders" of the mountain, the vertical top of it available, primarily because the soil on it is scree. Go to the mountain, we have a clear day so they could see the beauty of the surroundings and under the feet are not sloshing in the mud (if the rain catches, this is possible). But it is better to take along a local guide. And then we can see the remains of ancient settlements, ceremonial sites, religious sanctuaries, to try exotic fruits. Of course, here not described all the attractions of the island. Travel around the island Ring road along the coast goes around the entire island, its length is 32 kilometers. Public transport is represented by the only bus which runs approx once an hour. The best way to move around the Central island is to rent a bike, scooter or car. Only while travelling you need to be wary of domestic animals: pigs, chickens, dogs that run loose around the neighborhood. Even better to travel to Bora Bora on foot, along the way exploring all the attractions of the island. In such hikes will not be superfluous local guide, who will tell many interesting and spend in the most inaccessible places, Bora-Bora, where possible, of course. Three mountains is Pahia, and otemanu Mataiea. The last is the highest (727 metres). But all three much eroded edge of the crater of an extinct volcano. The rest of the island consists of basaltic lava, and the little motu from the remains of corals and layers of sand. Nature like in a fairy tale! And this is no exaggeration. Bora Bora – where is it? Where is the emerald lagoon with clear water, a scattering of cosy coral islets called motu, palm groves, fruit orchards, mountain range with three peaks, Three mountains is Pahia, and otemanu Mataiea. The last is the highest (727 metres). But all three much eroded edge of the crater of an extinct volcano. The rest of the island consists of basaltic lava, and the little motu from the remains of corals and layers of sand. The Polynesians, Tahitians or the Local residents live mainly on a flat coastal strip, because the Central part is covered by mountains difficult to access. According to the 2007 census, the local population of the island amounted to 8880. Most of them (around 5,000 people) live in the only major settlement and administrative centre of the island, Vaitape. There is even a Christian Church. The island's residents speak Thai and French. But many of them understand English, since it is necessary to communicate with tourists, and not only as staff.

Cook Islands Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

https://www.expedia.com/Cook-Islands.d41.Destination-Travel-Guides
Situated at the very centre of Polynesia, the Cook Islands is an archipelago nation comprised of 15 islands. It is spread across an area in the South Pacific, three times the size of Texas..
Supremely beautiful, with pristine white sands fringed by coconut palms, the Cook Islands possess a castaway island magic and yet is only a four hour flight from New Zealand.
According to legend, these tiny islands, dotted amongst the vast ocean, were discovered thousands of years ago by the very finest Polynesian seafarers. Guided by the stars and using other sophisticated navigation techniques, they landed their legendary double hulled Vakas and set about creating paradise.
It is a rhythm you’ll feel as soon as you touch down in Raratonga, the largest island in the group.
You could easily drive around this sparkling island in half an hour if you hurry, but that’s the charm of the Cook Islands….. no one does.
It has been almost 250 years since Captain Cook became the first European to discover these islands and yet there is a gentle timelessness that endures here.
Come and discover the generous rhythm and warm hospitality of the Cook Islands for yourself.
